Building tow rig - which parts?
Building tow rig - which parts?
We tow a 10K travel trailer all around the South East, and I want to get the maximum low-end performance out of my '06. So far, I have a Goerend built tranny and a BDDL. I am gonna ditch the BDDL because of bad shifting problems after getting the tranny upgraded.
I am looking for a good stacking combo that will give me lots of LOW-END power - from 1100RPM to 2500RPM. I will not be racing/dragging anything - just want something that will have tons of low-end grunt. I also want the ability to adjust the power levels from inside the cab while driving (similar to the BDDL outlook monitor).
So far, I have looked at getting the Predator stack (DiabloSport Predator & Power Puck Combo) as well as getting some F1 injectors and maybe an upgraded turbo.
Any other opinions/suggestions?

If your towing, stay far away from that stack, you will be constantly fighting it. I tow a 37' 5er that ways over 13k dry. Last fall just before I parked it for the winter I towed it on a long trip through the rocky mountains in lower BC. Well there is a ton of 8 and 9% grades, I was running the regular juice and bd power pup, silver 62 turbo, 4" MBRP, AFE Stage 2 intake, fass 150 / 95, and a built tranny. It towed awesome, I had them both on max, never had a problem with my egt's. The only problem that I had, if you can call it a problem, is that when climbing a big hill, if you didnt watch closely and shift out of OD at 1950 rpm, it would start surgeing and barking the turbo. But that was easy to work with, just hit the OD button at 1975, no problem. I have added more HP for this year, and expect to be able to pull most hills in OD without that problem
